Redesigning the TFS Website
Executive Summary
The primary objective of this project was to address poor website performance, outdated information, and enhance accessibility, adding new compliance measures with CCPA, aligning the TFS website with the broader initiative of redesigning all OnPoint Group websites. Through many acquisitions and mergers, the OnPoint Group sites became mismatched and disorganized. This endeavor sought to bring all OnPoint Group sites to the same standard of quality and match the new brand guidelines. The outcome is a modern, high-performing, and accessible website that not only met but exceeded the client’s expectations.
Introduction
TFS, a subsidiary of OnPoint Group, occupies a pivotal role in delivering essential services, yet its online presence presented significant challenges. The website suffered from performance issues, outdated content, and inconsistencies in branding. In response, FocustApps, an expert in web design and development, was entrusted with the critical task of redesigning the Miner website. The primary objective of this redesign project was to harmonize TFS’ web presence with OnPoint Group’s overarching vision. As part of a larger initiative to modernize and standardize all OnPoint Group websites, the project aimed to address specific pain points.
The proposed solution involved comprehensive measures to address these challenges. It included performance optimization to ensure faster loading times, a content overhaul to provide accurate and up-to-date information, consistency in branding to create a unified corporate image, and a user-friendly interface to facilitate more engaging interactions.
The transformation of the TFS website not only aligned it with OnPoint Group’s overarching goals but also exemplified the impact of effective web redesign in improving the user experience and enhancing brand consistency. The following sections of this case study delve into the project’s details, benefits, and outcomes, highlighting the importance of maintaining a strong online presence in line with evolving user expectations and corporate objectives.
Problem Statement
The TFS website faced several critical challenges:
- Poor Performance: Slow loading times and inconsistent functionality hindered the user experience, potentially turning away prospective clients and existing users.
- Outdated Information & Inconsistent Styling: The website contained obsolete content and old branding that did not reflect the current state of the company’s services, leading to confusion among visitors.
- Accessibility: The existing website was not optimized for accessibility, potentially excluding individuals with disabilities from accessing essential information.
- New and Evolving Compliance: In recent years, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) was put in place to help tackle issues of online privacy and make sure that websites were transparent about how they used user data on the web. TFS needed to ensure their site would handle user information safely and transparently in order to meet this standard.
